Maya Civilization

This half term we will be doing project based Home learning all about the Ancient Maya.
Each child has received a Project book with this menu stuck in the front.
Maya Homework

Each activity has a certain number of points. Children need at least 24 points and have 5 weeks to complete the tasks, before books need to be returned into school (7th April 2022). They can complete any of the activities in any order. You can tick the activities off as you go to make it easier to remember which ones you have done.

As some tasks are practical in nature (make a Mayan hot chocolate), I would request that you take a photo of the finished product/ the process and either: stick it in the Project book or send it in via class dojo, so we can print it and stick it in.

Have fun with your projects.

World Book Day

03/02/22 was World Book Day, which we celebrated as a whole school.
In class 2, we watched the video of the retelling of In the Hall of the Mountain King, which used music that matched the story. We discussed the effect that the music had on us as we listened to the story, especially the intense, dangerous part. After we used our creative skills to put background music to a picture book of our choice.
